New Delhi, July 15

A US Navy aircraft carrier and its accompanying ‘strike group’ undertook a maritime partnership exercise with warships of the Indian Navy in the Arabian Sea.

The Indian Navy said on Monday that the “warships INS Aditya and INS Visakhapatnam were part of the exercise with US Naval Carrier Strike Group comprising USS Theodore Roosevelt and USS Daniel Inouye in the Arabian Sea on July 12”.

The US Central Command headquartered at Bahrain had earlier on July 12 put a post on X saying the Theodore Roosevelt Carrier Strike Group (TRCSG) arrived in the US 5th Fleet area of operations on July 12 to deter “aggression, promote regional stability and protect the free flow of commerce in the region”. The US said the joint maritime activity with the Indian Navy advances interoperability between the two major defence partners and underscores their shared commitment to upholding a free and open Indo-Pacific.

The US and Indian military forces are focused on improving shared maritime domain awareness and information sharing; enhancing replenishment at mid-sea and interoperating with logistics of each other while improving combined air-to-air capabilities. The Indian Navy routinely participates alongside US Navy units in multilateral exercises.
